Now he has settled into the squad, is it time to give him a run at Right Back?

He did well in his first season in Right Midfield, but last season he was out of sorts. I think coming from deep he always looks dangerous. I think he has come predictable in RM and probably isnt as suited as he could have been.

Dom: "Say we have 50,000 fans willing to invest a minimum of £1000 each into the ownership scheme, that's at the very least £40m raised."

He had a poor game in Europe about two years ago but that doesn't mean he shouldn't play in defence ever again. He's not going to make it as a midfielder and it's not like Neville and Hibbert are world beaters.

Even if he takes time to adjust positionally, Everton always play with two holding midfielders and no out and out right winger, so it would hardly leave the defence exposed.

He was excellent 2 years ago but was absolutely terrible last season.Maybe he was found out as he does not have much of a football brain and just relys on raw speed to take a man on.I think it might be a small bit soon to be totally writing him off though as i think the ligament damage that he suffered in pre season had a big impact on his performance last year.He seemed to be carrying the injury all season and was rushed back too early as he got injured straight away again on two occasions.Right midfield is definitely a position that needs to be looked at but he is a decent option off the bench if he can return to his form that he showed 2 years ago.I don't think he will ever make it as a defender though as his positional sense is just not good enough and it is a part of his game that he really needs to work on.

He was poor last season but did pick up a few injuries. But i'm not going to write him off just yet, he was very good in his first 2 seasons for us. Hopefully with a full pre-season behind him he can come good.
